London4Europe Vice-Chair Nick Hopkinson has four key messages: 1. Brexit is not a done deal; 2. Brexit can be stopped; 3. The People's Vote is the way to stop Brexit; 4. Each and every one of us needs to get behind the People's Vote.

So where are we? People are changing their minds about Brexit. Recent polls show good leads in favour of a Peoples Vote on any Brexit deal and a slowly growing, but still slim, majority for staying in the European Union (EU).

Democracy did not start and stop on 23 June 2016. If a party loses an election, it doesn't stop campaigning to win the next one. As David Davis said, "If a democracy cannot change its mind, it ceases to be a democracy."

The 2016 referendum was a vote on an idea. Leave offered no agreed plan. Every Leave voter had to decide for him/herself what Leave meant. A Peoples' Vote on the terms of any Brexit deal will be the first time voters have a choice between two concrete options: what we enjoy now as an EU member and an inevitably poorer deal outside it.

A People's Vote would be quite different from 2016. It would ask about the plan for Brexit, not the idea. No one takes a project from idea to implementation without reviewing the project plan.

Voters only gave the government a mandate to negotiate Brexit. The people have yet to consent to the final Brexit deal. It is like buying a house - if we don't like the survey, we have the right to withdraw our offer. Even Rees-Mogg has argued: "we could have two referendums…it might make more sense to have the 2ndreferendum after the negotiation is completed."

There are of course major areas of concern such as the economic, political and social damage of Brexit, the Brexiteers being unable to deliver their promised fantasies, and serious evidence the 2016 referendum was not free and fair but was tainted by foreign interference. So as what Brexit actually means becomes clearer and new facts come to light, there is still all to play for.

Brexit is unravelling. The Chequers Facilitated Customs Arrangement proposals pleased few in Theresa May's own Party. Arguably May planned to flush out Davis and Johnson. Not coincidentally the Government is at last floating some of the negative consequences of Brexit, particularly a No Deal Brexit, again possibly to face down her hard right. I nevertheless look forward to learning how the Government plans to stockpile lettuce.

We are unfortunately stuck between an an anti-business Conservative hard Brexit and a hard Left Brexit. The crisis will only deepen in the Autumn. May has run out of road. Any more concessions to the EU on a customs union and she risks a leadership challenge - even though it appears unlikely she would be toppled. If she offers no further concessions to the EU, she risks no deal. It is widely believed Parliament would not accept no, indeed any, deal, even if a meaningful vote isn't as watertight as we would like.

Therefore a leading scenario must be that like Wilson and Cameron before her, a British Prime Minister again contracts out internal party problems to the people to resolve. Labour has always been one inch ahead of Conservative Brexit, so pressing Labour to support a People's Vote could help bring it on.

Whatever transpires, we must fire on all cylinders to change public opinion to Remain in the EU. We can and must stop this madness. Every little helps as they say so please write to your MP, be active on social media, leaflet, join action days and marches, write letters to the media, talk to friends, family, colleagues and strangers.

Let's remember, we are the true patriots arguing for peace and prosperity in Britain and our neighbourhood. Brexiteers want to take the country back, we as London4Europe want to take our country forward.
